Gimme Some Hair of the Dog From ‘03

Say what you want about the 2003 Cub season, but I say it was the greatest in my lifetime.
I am aware of the cursed ending, thank you, but…
If you were lucky enough to get to Wrigley when they clinched or during any of the playoff games, there was something in the air that was the greatest feeling in the world.
And I got a shot of it.
And I’ve been waiting for another ever since – a little hair of the dog.
Seriously, this ’07 team has been an evolution from the get-go, and I’ve always felt like old Lou was on a multi-year plan to get what he really wanted on the field.
Look at the different line-ups.
It’s only the dawn of man for this team.
But they still ought to do something more than have an interesting season.
I can’t take the Reds seriously.
The Cards, this year they should be just that – a house of cards that this Cub team should be able to topple.
The Brewers seem to actually have the horses, they just got out of the corral.
Lets hope they stay out there wandering over the next 3 days.
Because I need a shot, bro.
A little hair of the dog of ’03.
